Doing research on motor swap on C10

[TechBill]

I am currently working on my '86 Chevy C10. Right now it got a 305 block with a carburetor that all rusted out and I am thinking about modernizing it by putting a motor in it with a TBI.

Is there a certain year motor with TBI that will drop directly into the '86 truck? From my research, Chevy start making 305 TBI at '88 correct?

If I was to find a donor '88 truck or van and pull the motor, tranny, ECM, wirning harness for ECM, will it drop right in without special adapters or kits?
